savatage'in streets albümünün son şarkısıdır. tanrının ağzından söylenmiştir. dinleyince insanın iki rekat namaz kılası gelir.
...
i am the way
i am the light
i am the dark inside the night
i hear your hopes
i feel your dreams
and in the dark i hear screams
don't turn away
just take my hand
when you make your final stand
i'll be right there
and never leave
all i ask from you is believe...
so after all these one night stands
you've ended up with heart in hand
a child alone
on your own
retreating
regretful for the things you're not
and all dreams you haven't got
without a home
a heart of stone
lies bleeding
and for all the roads you followed
and for all you did not find
and for all the things you had to leave behind
i am the way
i am the light
i am the dark inside the night
i hear your hopes
i feel your dreams
and in the dark
i hear your screams
don't turn away
just take my hand
and when you make your final stand
i'll be right there
i'll never leave
all i ask of you
believe
your childhood eyes were so intense
while bartering your innocence
for bits of string
grown-up wings
you needed
but when you had to add them up
you found that they were not enough
to get you in
pay for sins repeated
and for all the years you borrowed
and for all the tears you cried
and for all the fears you had to keep inside
i am the way
i am the light
i am the dark inside the night
i hear your hopes
i feel your dreams
and in the dark
i hear your screams
don't turn away
just take my hand
and when you make your final stand
i'll be right there
i'll never leave
and all i ask of you is
believe
chemical brothers 'ın push the button albümündeki en güzel parçalardan biri. şarkının klibinde, çalıştığı otomobil fabrikasındaki robotların kendisine taktığını düşünen paranoyak şizofren manyak bir gencin tırsma hikayesi anlatılıyor. süper gerçekten.
do you believe what some might say can't be could be reality
let seven be the one for me; six chapters of life laced with mystery....
awaiting discovery
immune you become a war to be won the soul of a voice...
let the voice of the soul be free
for most it does not come easily
for some it comes with pain
from a thought to a living sight
for some it's a life for some a game
there are things in life worth fighting for
and some things are better off let go
a dream secured long ago or yesterday
close to the top there's no looking down
when you believe
do you believe?
if you believe
you must believe
if i was paid for disappointments i would be a wealthy man
the magic lives in sincerity, in truth, behind the thoughts i choose to stand...
awaiting discovery
lakin bence şarkının "erol alkan's 'feel me' re-work" versiyonu katlar orjinalini. genel kanaatim de zaten believe'in süper bir şarkı olmadığı yönündedir. klibi ultradır, o ayrı.
süper bi klibe sahip olan chemical brothers şarkısı. sözleri de şöyledir -pek fazla sözü yok ama olsun-:
i needed to believe in something
i need you to believe in something
i needed to believe something
i need you to believe in something
i needed to believe
i'm moving in between
can you feel me in between?
i'm moving in between
can you feel me in between?
ı believe in love, it's all we got
love has no boundaries, costs nothing to touch
war makes money, cancer sleeps
curled up in my father and that means something to me
churches and dictators, politics and papers
everything crumbles sooner or later
but love, ı believe in love
ı believe in love, it's all we got
love has no boundaries, no borders to cross
love is simple, hate breeds
those who think difference is the child of disease
father and son make love and guns
families together kill someone
without love, ı believe in love
without love ı wouldn't believe
ın anything that lives and breathes
without love ı'd have no anger
ı wouldn't believe in the right to stand here
without love ı wouldn't believe
ı couldn't believe in you
and ı wouldn't believe in me
without love
ı believe in love
ı believe in love
ı believe in love
the faces all around me they don't smile they just crack
waiting for our ship to come but our ships not coming back
we do our time like pennies in a jar
what are we saving for [x2]
there's a smell of stale fear that's reeking from our skins.
the drinking never stops because the drinks absolve our sins
we sit and grow our roots into the floor
but what are we waiting for? [x2]
[chorus:]
so give me something to believe
cause ı am living just to breathe
and ı need something more
to keep on breathing for
so give me something to believe
something's always coming you can hear it in the ground
ıt swells into the air
with the rising
rising sound
and never comes but shakes the boards and rattles all the doors
what are we waiting for [x2]
[chorus]
ı am hiding from some beast
but the beast was always here
watching without eyes
because the beast is just my fear
that ı am just nothing
now its just what ı've become
what am ı waiting for
ıts already done
zannedersem hayatımıza vocoder'i, auto-tune'u sokan cher parçasıydı. gerçi cher'den sonra o vocoder denilen zımbırtı hem ayağa düştü hem de daft punk tarafından olağanüstü kullanıldı ama olsun. believe vocoder'i pop müziğe sokan parçadır bence.
jon ve criss oliva'lı savatage'in en vurucu şarkısıdır. konsept albüm olan streets a rock opera albümünün 16. şarkısıdır, yani son şarkısı. ayrıca 2000li yıllarda yayınlanan edge of thorns albümlerinin yeni versiyonlarının bonus şarkısı olarak da yer almıştır. söz müzik oliva kardeşler ve paul o'neill'ındır. criss oliva'nın harika soloları, manalı sözler ve jon oliva'nın o ağır sesi şarkıyı harika yapmıştır.

ı sit alone and watch the clock
trying to collect my thoughts
all ı think about is you
and so ı cry myself to sleep
and hope the devil ı don't meet

believe in me
sometimes the weak become the strong
believe in me
this life's not always what it seems
believe in me
cause ı was made for chasing dreams
all the smiles you've had to fake
and all the shit you've had to take
just to lead us here again

to make it all just go away
to make it all just disappear

99 kışında albümle aynı adı taşıyan (bu klişeyi kullanmak bana da kısmet oldu yarabbim) believe'in videosu müzik kanallarında dönmüş, onun ardından strong enough gelmiş (aslında önce strong enough da çıkmış olabilir) ve 99 yazında dove l amore her yerde çalınmıştır.
dünya çapında 20 milyon satmış, bir sürü ödül mödül almıştır.
kasede parası yeten ergen kızlarımızın mutlaka aldıkları bir albüm olmuştur believe. benim de aldığım ilk yabancı kasetti. hey gidi günler.
